Google Maps ported to iOS 6 from iOS 5.1 (video)

iOS hacker and developer Ryan Petrich today announced that he successfully ported Google Maps to iOS 6 from iOS 5 of an iPhone 3GS.

Preview of the old Google Maps application from iOS5.1 and earlier running on an iPhone 3G S updated to iOS 6.0

Still crashy and cannot be distributed to the public yet, but it mostly works 🙂

Petrich confirmed that this port will require users with jailbroeken. So Google Maps will likely to land on the iPhone 5, since it was jailbroken on day one it went on sale by another iOS hacker chpwn.
